Here's my build. I know it's very close to your limit, and I'm sure Greek prices aren't as low as those off of Newegg. However, with the extra graduation money you might be able to swing the difference and possibly afford water cooling. However, this is a very high performance machine that is quite future-proof. Now, you're able to swap out the case freely...but for the price, the case I chose has great reviews.

Prices can be totally different in international markets.... i.e. if you were to convert the prices to American dollars the prices for certain parts are often still much higher than what they would be on Newegg or NCIX or other American retailers. This is the case in Australia, for one. So I don't recommend wasting any more time on Newegg, it's a poor base.

Again you are correct. I am in Europe where its ~20 cents difference to the dollar right now(American Dollar that is). I know where OP and you are coming from. The list is for him to find the prices and to decide how much he wants that 7950 or the SSD and so on. I cannot make that choice for him it is again his money. If I considered using EUR as a currency I would say 1,000 US dollars would be his actual budget all things considered with using the 19% VAT. If he would like I can adjust for the prices for him or simply let him do that himself.
